You’re right Dirk, I am not a participant, and I apologize for butting in where I don't belong. I am a fan of the WCL and I just think it is disrespectful to call out a person and make assumptions of a game not being played based on a player not responding right away...and to a side proposal that was not even a part of the original set of rules. I see where WCL has been very timely in assembling a team and providing times, rules, etc… when requested. If a WCL member does not come back with a reply in 30 minutes, they are disorganized as a team and need to get better leadership. I know WCL isn’t making the same assumptions when the members of Heroes.by demand exact times, but cannot accommodate the times given to them.

@ Balamut - I hardly think that telling a person to relax is abusing a person... but if you feel hurt, I apologize ____________

You are right (to a certain extent) and I agree (to a certain extent).
Problem is, this arguing doesn't lead us to where we want to go......a well played (first) tournament between 2 different leagues.

It seems heroes.by exist for a longer time than WCL does (started this year), so it is obvious they are better organized and know each other better than we (WCL) do. This is not a fault of anyone, but all participants should accept this and don't take any changings in time setups too serious.

Heroes.by came with a full prepared team, while WCL created a team "out of nowhere".

I am pretty sure, the next tournament between these 2 leagues (and I really hope this is going to happen) will be better organized.

Better judged by 12 than carried by 6.

Totally agree. It's difficult to manage virtual team, however it's possible. Also, next time players will need less time for preparations.

Sorry, but as I said to Devangel once - there are just three templates in this tournament. We play 2sm-templates for years, and it was one of main ideas to try our skills on different templates and rules. However we have little time to train more than three templates, that is why we don't play marathon or other templates in this tournament.
But I hope it's not problem for you. As I remember you say:

Quote:..although i dont like the "we-are-superior-style" of Balamut, i will risk a game on Jebus Cross.

This game will not count. Your team have to substitute Xarfax.
And if new player will be playing with Paladin - then they should play as they start: Fortress vs Stronghold on Jebus. If new player will play with somebody else from our team than they can rechange starting towns.
